A pass that isn't a pass

[Raghav]

Looks like a DL on first move and a DB,but can't find it having relation with a fake pass. Also looking like the passes are being done 2 times. Here, from 0:08

The title is "This won't fool you unless you're a magician."

He's not actually doing any of the moves. He's just faking it, so magicians think he's doing moves and thus expecting certain things to happen. It's technically fooling you, because you think one thing has happened when it has not.

He's not actually doing any of the moves.

But how do you get that flicking movement at 0:15 which does nothing?

A one card or small packet pass...

Two possibilities that I see - 1) He's literally just flicking the top card up and back down with his left hand (As you would for a pass, just not actually doing the pass) or 2) He's doing a one-card pass.
